The college does not provide substitute faculty except in extreme circumstances such as long-term illness. All substitute faculty members must be approved by the VP for Academic Affairs or other site administrator and cleared through the Human Resources Office prior to substituting for class. In the case of approved absences, faculty and staff from the Department may be available to present information on the approved absences or other topics. Unauthorized substitutes will not be paid.
Sick leave is accumulated based upon teaching hours completed. Time missed due to an absence will be deducted from the faculty member’s accumulated sick leave. In the event, there is no remaining sick leave balance, a payroll adjustment will be made on the next paycheck. Any arrangements to reschedule a class during the regular dates of the semester MUST be approved by the VP for Academic.
Evaluation of Faculty
